An Overwatch 2 fan has sparked excitement within the community by designing a stunning Mercy skin inspired by Nintendo’s Princess Peach. The concept, featuring a pink Caduceus Gun, Staff, and a turnip charm, has garnered widespread admiration, with many fans eager to see it become a reality.
This creative fan-made design highlights the Overwatch community’s talent and enthusiasm, even as the game continues to navigate challenges with its premium skins.
Highlights
- Overwatch 2 fan creates Princess Peach-inspired Mercy skin concept, complete with pink Caduceus Gun and Staff.
- Many fans would love to see the Peach skin become a reality, showcasing Overwatch community”s creativity.
- Overwatch 2 has a diverse line of unique skins for heroes, but has faced criticism and issues with premium skins.
An Overwatch 2 fan created a Mercy skin concept inspired by the popular Nintendo character, Peach. Overwatch 2 is known for creating unique skins for its roster of heroes that players can use to dress their mains up, and one hero with eye-catching skins is the healer Mercy.
Since the first game, Mercy has been considered one of the most memorable Overwatch heroes because of her broken Resurrect ability, which allowed her to revive her entire team. Resurrect was later nerfed, making Mercy only revive one fallen ally at a time, but it didn”t stop Overwatch 2 fans from playing her.

In the comments, many Overwatch 2 fans said that they”d instantly purchase the Peach-inspired skin if it were ever officially released. Some also voiced their wish that Blizzard would collaborate with Nintendo to turn the skin into a reality, but this might be impossible considering Nintendo”s strict standards around their IP. Perhaps the closest Overwatch 2 skins in design were the limited-time Pink Mercy and Rose Gold Mercy from Season 11, which were launched to support the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.
In the past, many Overwatch 2 fans have also created skin concepts for their favorite heroes. One fan recently shared a Shadow the Hedgehog-themed skin for Juno, the newest hero coming to Overwatch 2. Meanwhile, another fan imagined what an Overwatch 2 and Avatar: The Last Airbender collaboration would look like in their creative skin concept.Close
Overwatch 2 has a diverse line of skins that”s unique to every hero, but it”s also been subject to some criticism from avid players. Last May, Blizzard had to temporarily disable Mythic Skins to fix a bug, among other issues that needed to be patched up, which worried players because the premium skins suddenly disappeared from their collections. Fortunately, Overwatch 2 managed to restore the Mythic skins and ensured that the game continued running smoothly.
